Star Rating

With an average elevation of 8,000 feet, the North Rim offers views of the canyon from a higher vantage. Look for Kaibab squirrels, goshawks, porcupines, mule deer and elk.
From lodging on the North Rim, hike along the rim or into the canyon, take a mule ride into the canyon, or drive to viewpoints and other area points of interest. Trail rides at the North Rim are offered mid-May to mid-October, and provide riders with a sauntering view of the canyon. Inquire at the lodge.
Viewpoints on the North Rim provide memorable opportunities to look across the expanse of the canyon. Point Imperial and Cape Royal are reached via a winding scenic drive. The trip to both points, with short walks at each and several stops at pullouts along the way, can easily take half a day.
